The FFIEC 101 is required for certain large or internationally active state member banks and bank holding companies (BHCs) and also for those institutions that adopt the framework on a voluntary basis. The Federal Deposit Insurance Act (FDI Act) and the International Lending Supervision Act of 1983 (ILSA) require the agencies to have risk-based capital requirements and to ensure that banks maintain adequate capital. The Federal Reserve uses these data to assess and monitor the levels and components of each reporting entity's risk-based capital requirements and the adequacy of the entity's capital under the framework. These data also allow the Federal Reserve to evaluate the quantitative impact and competitive implications of the framework on individual respondents and on the industry. The reporting schedules also assist banks in understanding expectations surrounding the system development necessary for implementation and validation of the framework. The submitted data that is released publicly also provide other interested parties with information about banks' risk-based capital. Finally, the submitted data supplement on-site examination processes.
Respondents are required to submit detailed data on the components of their capital and risk-weighted assets in 19 schedules. The agencies propose to implement revisions to regulatory capital components and ratios of the Risk-Based Capital Reporting for Institutions Subject to the Advanced Capital Adequacy Framework (FFIEC 101). The proposed revisions to the FFIEC 101 are consistent with the revised regulatory capital rules approved by the agencies during July 2013 (revised regulatory capital rules). Institutions subject to the advanced approaches risk-based capital rules (advanced approaches banking organizations) that are not savings and loan holding companies would begin reporting on the proposed revised FFIEC 101 effective March 31, 2014. Advanced approaches banking organizations that are savings and loan holding companies and that are subject to the revised regulatory capital rules would begin reporting on the proposed revised FFIEC 101 effective March 31, 2015.
